  286. 2009-04-30 - r18719 - lavc 52.28.0 - av_free_packet()
  287. av_free_packet() is no longer an inline function. It is now exported.
  288. 2009-04-11 - r18431 - lavc 52.25.0 - deprecate av_destruct_packet_nofree()
  289. Please use NULL instead. This has been supported since r16506
  290. (lavf > 52.23.1, lavc > 52.10.0).
  291. 2009-04-07 - r18351 - lavc 52.23.0 - avcodec_decode_video/audio/subtitle
  292. The old decoding functions are deprecated, all new code should use the
  293. new functions avcodec_decode_video2(), avcodec_decode_audio3() and
  294. avcodec_decode_subtitle2(). These new functions take an AVPacket *pkt
  295. argument instead of a const uint8_t *buf / int buf_size pair.
  296. 2009-04-03 - r18321 - lavu 50.3.0 - av_fifo_space()
  297. Introduce the av_fifo_space() function.
  298. 2009-04-02 - r18317 - lavc 52.23.0 - AVPacket
  299. Move AVPacket declaration from libavformat/avformat.h to
  300. libavcodec/avcodec.h.
  301. 2009-03-22 - r18163 - lavu 50.2.0 - RGB32 pixel formats
  302. Convert the pixel formats PIX_FMT_ARGB, PIX_FMT_RGBA, PIX_FMT_ABGR,
  303. PIX_FMT_BGRA, which were defined as macros, into enum PixelFormat values.
  304. Conversely PIX_FMT_RGB32, PIX_FMT_RGB32_1, PIX_FMT_BGR32 and
  305. PIX_FMT_BGR32_1 are now macros.
  306. avcodec_get_pix_fmt() now recognizes the "rgb32" and "bgr32" aliases.
  307. Re-sort the enum PixelFormat list accordingly.
  308. This change breaks API/ABI backward compatibility.
  309. 2009-03-22 - r18133 - lavu 50.1.0 - PIX_FMT_RGB5X5 endian variants
  310. Add the enum PixelFormat values:
  311. PIX_FMT_RGB565BE, PIX_FMT_RGB565LE, PIX_FMT_RGB555BE, PIX_FMT_RGB555LE,
  312. PIX_FMT_BGR565BE, PIX_FMT_BGR565LE, PIX_FMT_BGR555BE, PIX_FMT_BGR555LE.
  313. 2009-03-21 - r18116 - lavu 50.0.0 - av_random*
  314. The Mersenne Twister PRNG implemented through the av_random* functions
  315. was removed. Use the lagged Fibonacci PRNG through the av_lfg* functions
  316. instead.
  317. 2009-03-08 - r17869 - lavu 50.0.0 - AVFifoBuffer
  318. av_fifo_init, av_fifo_read, av_fifo_write and av_fifo_realloc were dropped
  319. and replaced by av_fifo_alloc, av_fifo_generic_read, av_fifo_generic_write
  320. and av_fifo_realloc2.
  321. In addition, the order of the function arguments of av_fifo_generic_read
  322. was changed to match av_fifo_generic_write.
  323. The AVFifoBuffer/struct AVFifoBuffer may only be used in an opaque way by
  324. applications, they may not use sizeof() or directly access members.
  325. 2009-03-01 - r17682 - lavf 52.31.0 - Generic metadata API
  326. Introduce a new metadata API (see av_metadata_get() and friends).
  327. The old API is now deprecated and should not be used anymore. This especially
  328. includes the following structure fields:
  329. - AVFormatContext.title
  330. - AVFormatContext.author
  331. - AVFormatContext.copyright
  332. - AVFormatContext.comment
  333. - AVFormatContext.album
  334. - AVFormatContext.year
  335. - AVFormatContext.track
  336. - AVFormatContext.genre
  337. - AVStream.language
  338. - AVStream.filename
  339. - AVProgram.provider_name
  340. - AVProgram.name
  341. - AVChapter.title
